Four more Premier League matches get underway at 3pm GMT today, including Brentford v Leicester City and Southampton v Tottenham Hotspur.

At the Brentford Community Stadium, Danny Ward and Kelechi Iheanacho drop to the bench as £3.8m Fantasy Premier League (FPL) goalkeeper Daniel Iversen gets the nod between the sticks.

Despite not being seen in training ground images on Wednesday, Son Heung-min starts for Spurs today.

The Lilywhites are unchanged from Gameweek 27 but Southampton have made three changes to the side that were beaten 2-0 by Brentford in midweek.

Ibrahima Diallo, Carlos Alcaraz and Kamaldeen Sulemana are benched as Stuart Armstrong, Theo Walcott and Romeo Lavia are handed recalls.

Wout Faes and Nampalys Mendy join Iheanacho and Ward in dropping out of the Leicester XI, with Faes suspended.

Harvey Barnes, Tete and Wilfred Ndidi come into the line-up, alongside Iversen.

As for the Bees, Mikkel Damsgaard and Yonna Wissa replace Kevin Schade and Vitaly Janelt.

Aston Villa and Bournemouth are both unchanged from their respective Gameweek 27 teams.

It’s two alterations apiece at Molineux.

Pedro Neto and Joao Gomes come in for Adama Traore and Joao Moutinho for the hosts, while Leeds head coach Javi Gracia brings back Wilfried Gnonto and Weston McKennie at the expense of the injured Tyler Adams and the benched Crysencio Summerville.

    Wonder if Havertz outscores Watkins this week

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Won't be hard to

  3. Fred54
    • 11 Years

    Perisic G

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Lol I forgot I was watching on the iPlayer which is a bit behind

  4. psl
    • 8 Years

    Ollie Flopkins

    1. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I conveniently forgot about that game after HT

    2. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years

      Wally Blankins

    3. Drumandbaines123

      Not Haulie Watkins

      1. BeaversWithAttitude
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Haulie Notkins?

    4. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      That didn't age well.

      1. Biggsy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Ollie Middlkins? Hardly the haul we were hoping for

      2. Planet Head
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Like a bottle of fine milk

    5. BeaversWithAttitude

      3 years, 2 months ago

      Folly Napkins

  5. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Perisic goal bad for Kane BAPS?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Probably wasn't good

    2. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Negligible, Peresic only subbed on late and forwards get more baps. Kane still on 2 bonus for now.

    3. Amartey Partey
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Seems okay

  6. Cilly Bonnolly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Guessing that was Watkins?

    1. Mr. O'Connell
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Of course it wasn't

      1. Cilly Bonnolly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Just figured because I went Havertz. 😆

  7. Forza Papac
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ramsey G

    1. Fred54
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I don't even know who he plays for...

      1. Shultan
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Villa

        1. Fred54
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          It was an injoke, I thought Villa only fielded Watkins.

    2. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Assist?

      1. Gandalf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Sofascore says Watkins. Can't confirm though

  8. fantasist
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Watkins over Isak was a bad decision. 3rd option Havertz will probably do well too now.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Why are people pretending that that they highly considered Isak?

      1. Mr. O'Connell
        • 13 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        This

      2. fantasist
        • 16 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Everytime he plays he's a constant threat, he plays twice in gw29 and better than Havertz. What's the big controversy

  9. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Villa goal not watkins

  10. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Theoooo

    1. fantasist
      • 16 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Must've felt good to score against Spurs

  11. WVA
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    FFS rival getting perisic off bench for Almiron

  12. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

  13. Granville
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Walcott G Ward-Prowse A

    1. Bobby Digital
      • 8 Years

      Mara assist?

  14. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Ramsey G

  15. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kane Baps

  16. Red Star Toro
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Assist for Watkins I guess

  17. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Wally G

  18. Mr. O'Connell
    • 13 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Walcott takes all the bonus!!

  19. Ze_Austin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Mbeumo hasn't had a great game so far

  20. Shultan
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Watkins assist

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'll take it

  21. Baps Hunter
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Watkins A?

  22. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Shitkins

    1. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Crapkins assist

    2. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Assistkins

  23. Paqueta Rice
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Comes off the defender not Watkins right? Didn’t see a replay

  24. La Roja
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Shitkins A

    1. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Need a shitkins G

  25. Gudjohnsen
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Kane barely getting 1 BAP

  26. Royal5
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Still nothing for Watkins? Knew he was a mistake 🙁

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Got an assist I think

    2. Drop Dead Tsimikas
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Assist on Ramsey's goal.

    3. Cilly Bonnolly
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      An assist and probably that third goal that just went in…

      1. Gandalf
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Appears to be disallowed the 3rd

    4. Royal5
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Nice didn't know he got an assist

  27. g40steve
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Jonny RED possibility

  28. Drop Dead Tsimikas
    • 14 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    I don't understand how the scorers of two goals for the losing (so far) team are on more BAPs than the guy who scored for the winning one.

    1. Hazz
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Walcott has a goal and an assist. Cuhna is forward and none of the Leeds scorers are. Forwards get more BPS per goal.

      1. Drop Dead Tsimikas
        • 14 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        That's also a bit weird, isn't it? Goals are assumed from forwards, but not from defenders (hence they get more points per), so wouldn't it stand to reason they'd get more for doing things they aren't expected to?

    2. Big_Andy_GAWA
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Perisic came on after 37 minutes, too, did he not?

  29. Feloh
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Watkins to outscore Havertz.

  30. fish&chips
    • 15 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Still time for a brace Toney

    1. Red Star Toro
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It’s the hope that kills

    2. g40steve
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Please
